Which Razor is Best? | Cartridge Vs Electric Vs Straight Vs Safety Vs Disposable Razors
About this video
Centeno explains the five main categories of razors—straight, cartridge, safety, disposable, and electric—outlining the advantages and disadvantages of each to help men find the razor type that best suits their needs, technique level, and lifestyle.
Key takeaways
- Centeno argues that straight razors offer longevity and a quality shave but require years of practice and significant technique to use safely and effectively
- Centeno recommends cartridge razors for most men because they are forgiving of poor technique, convenient, travel-friendly, and require minimal skill to achieve an excellent shave
- Centeno contends that safety razors work well for men with skin irritation or ingrown hair concerns due to their single blade, though they require more upfront investment and proper technique
- Centeno presents electric razors as highly convenient but notes that lower-quality models can cause skin irritation and that many men find them less effective than other options
